Gold is Justice

"The one who was wrong was clearly the fresh ground digger! Why did it turn out to be the fault of those brothers and sisters? Is their death really inevitable?! At that time... At that time, couldn't we really just directly Go out, beat that Xian Digger away, and have a happy ending?"

At this moment, Ai Luo also raised his head slowly, his eyes revealed a touch of earnestness, and even looked at his teacher with a little expectation...

A little regret appeared on Connor's face. After thinking for a while, he finally shook his head lightly and said, "Poor children...their deaths are really unfortunate."

Exhaling a breath, Connor continued: "Miss Coco, you should be very lucky that you didn't make a move that day. Jia...Ai Luo, you did the right thing. Even if the things in Xueyan Town were too much, it was their fault. What happened between the ruler and the ruled in a small town. But if you, an outsider, command your own guild to participate in this matter, then the nature of the matter has completely changed."

"Your mermaid song will become an armed force against the empire. After all, the empire must not allow the existence of an organization that can slaughter the mayors of subordinate villages and towns at will. This can be said to be a very dangerous move for you " Connor thought for a while, and then said: "But I can also understand, Miss Coco. I understand the feeling in your heart very well. This kind of feeling is indeed very bad. Seeing the weak side being bullied and being bullied Tortured, and even reached the worst ending in the end... Seeing such a result, I also feel uncomfortable."

Coco immediately raised her head and said expectantly: "So... so there is really no solution to this matter? If we encounter such a thing again in the future, can we still only watch the worst thing happen?"

Coco's question is precisely Airl's question.

Now, together with his members, he raised his head and looked at the economics teacher.Watching him... hoping for a little bit of hope to come out of his mouth.

"Of course not. And, of course, there are solutions."

During the long anticipation, the teacher's words were like the brilliance tearing through the darkness, instantly shining into Airl's eyes!A joyful smile immediately filled his face, and he even couldn't help leaning forward, hoping to hear more clearly the change that was about to be revealed!

"Reform. Our country needs to go through some reform...some reform that might be tough."

While talking about this, Connor took out a notebook from the small table, and after opening it, he looked at the densely packed and detailed contents on it, and said slowly——

"If you want to change the situation where a magician can control the life and death of the whole town, and even make the townspeople unable to resist, the only way is to carry out a deep reform."

"The first thing to do is to be able to better restrain the personal power of magicians, so that their use of magic power must be subject to stricter supervision. In addition, it is necessary to strengthen the review of the mayor. Our country It is necessary to be able to make deeper reforms to the taxation of each town. The first point is not to let the town mayor monopolize the power to review the tax system. If necessary, all taxes in each town should be brought under the unified management of the state. Hmm , just like two years ago, His Majesty the Emperor issued a decree requesting that the taxation authority of all guilds be taken back to the state management."

Speaking of this, Connor showed a little smile on his face, and said slowly: "If this reform can be carried out smoothly, then the lives of ordinary people in the future should be able to live a little better. And they don't have to suffer so much. exorbitant taxes."

Listening to Connor's talk about reform, Ke Ke didn't understand... But not understanding didn't prevent her from feeling the sincerity in the eyes of this mature, melancholy handsome man!At that moment, she said very excitedly: "Then... then Mr. Connor! With strict supervision, can such a tragedy never happen again? Great! How do we supervise the magician? Well... Although I think it may be strange for me to say this, but who can supervise me? Is the president brother responsible?"

Seeing Coco's innocence and loveliness, Connor had a happy smile on his face.He nodded slightly, smiled and said to Airl next to him: "You have really raised a very good child. Generally speaking, it is impossible for a magician with an affinity for death magic to have such a bright smile."

Airl nodded slightly, but didn't speak directly.

After thinking about it for a while, Connor continued: "Supervise the work in this area...According to my vision, the Royal Society of Magicians is a ready-made organization. It really might as well make this organization operate more effectively."

"Royal Society???"

Coco, who seemed very happy just now, immediately lost more than half of the enthusiasm on his face after hearing this name.

A disdainful expression appeared on her face, and she said, "Let this association work? Mr. Connor, don't forget that the mayor of Xian Digger I just mentioned is actually affiliated with the Royal Association of Magicians." .”

Connor nodded and said with a smile, "That's right. Besides, I know what you're thinking, little necromancer. You're thinking how you can let them supervise themselves, right?"

Seeing that Keke stopped talking, Connor continued: "In fact, although the Royal Association of Magicians has a large number of people, it is only compared to other wizarding associations."

"You should also know that the number of magicians has always been relatively rare, so even if a Royal Society of Magicians has registered more than half of the magicians in the entire Blue Bay Empire, there are only 500 people. Others Most of them are internal affairs workers, although they can also be regarded as members, but the overall influence is completely negligible."

"What is the concept of an association of 500 people? Well...let me put it this way, in the capital of our Blue Bay Empire, the number of registered guilds in Hanhai City may not be less than three digits. Among them, the top few The number of guild members is more than 500. And if you want to count the most powerful guild, Light of Heaven, this powerful guild has branch guilds all over the country, and the registered guild members in just a remote town probably have one Two hundred."

"So, the number of members of the Magicians Association is really nothing. It is precisely because the number of people is really not large, and the number of recruited magicians has not been stable, so even if there is royal endorsement, basically It can be regarded as a semi-official, semi-private organization."

Coco was taken aback for a moment, and said, "What do you mean the number of magicians recruited is not stable? Don't all the magicians all over the country think it is good to join this association?"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

After saying this, Connor looked at Coco's eyes that seemed to be satisfied and smiled slightly, and continued: "Because of the above factors, the background of the Royal Society of Magicians is actually not too strong. Without any administrative power, more than half of the association's funds need to be raised by itself. Under such circumstances, it is impossible for the association to restrain its own magicians."

"However, if the royal family can completely take the Royal Society of Magicians under the ownership of the state, allocate a fixed amount of funds every year to maintain the association, reward and train the magicians in it, and carry out survival of the fittest to a certain extent, then the association Naturally, there will also be motivation to manage the magicians under it. In this way, the good results you have just envisioned can be achieved."

Connor closed the notebook in his hand, and with a questioning gesture, he said with a smile: "Think about it, if that day in Xueyan Town, when the earth magician threatened the townspeople, the townspeople turned to go to Hanhai City, to report to the Royal Association of Magicians, then the Association will immediately send a magician to teach the earth magician, so naturally those tragedies will not happen later. In this way, the problem will be solved? "

As a teacher, Connor's words are indeed clear, well-founded and convincing.

After listening to the teacher's narration, Ke Ke opened her mouth halfway, and a little reverence gradually appeared on her face.

After pondering for a while, she nodded lightly and admired sincerely: "Mr. Connor, you are really amazing...! So you can still do this? I used to think that the association is all bad guys... "

Connor chuckled and said, "What is a good person and what is a bad person? Those who help themselves to earn economic benefits are good people, and those who hinder themselves from earning benefits are naturally bad people. Therefore, the purpose of our economics is to want Let most people in this world understand that only by cooperating with each other can the differences in this world be eliminated. When the time comes to make money together, who will think of a way to kill?"

"Then... Teacher Connor, I have one last question." At this moment, Airl, who had been silent all this time, finally opened his mouth and said slowly, "If ordinary people want to fight against magicians, If you just go to the association for help, then if the association can't draw a hand... Ordinary people, can they really have no way to deal with magicians? When ordinary people have no active weapons that can be used to contain magicians, Can you just be the one who is dominated all the time?"

Seeing Ai Luo's eyes slightly revealing the blue light, Mr. Connor just stared at him.

After staring at it for a while, the teacher could only sigh slightly, and said slowly——

"Maybe, this is life."

……

…………

………………

Chatting is a very pleasant thing.

Especially when chatting with my mentor, it seems that in the blink of an eye, time has slipped away between conversations.

The topic about Blood Swallow Town and the magician only took up a very small part. It didn't take long for Arrow to reappear a smile on his face, and he began to tell Connor some of his views on economics in the past two years.

And Connor also responded with a smile on his face. He showed a kind of full tolerance and easy-going towards this tireless student.

After talking about academics, they began to chat about daily life and the scenery during their travels.She even chatted with Ke Ke next to her, and the little girl blushed all of a sudden, and didn't dare to show her anger. Regarding Connor's proposal that Ke Ke would enroll to study economics, the little girl hurriedly hid Behind Airl's back, he dare not agree or deny it.

"Unknowingly, it's getting so late? Are you staying for a meal? The food in the cafeteria seems to be very good today."

Teacher Connor put away his books and notes, and said with a smile.

For this kindness, Airo waved his hands helplessly, and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, I have to pick up another member of mine. And it's the eve of the war, and there are really many things to prepare "That's it..." Connor's face showed a little disappointment, and he could only nod his head and said with a smile, "Well, your work is more important now, and I will definitely watch it during the game .In addition, I will propose the reform incident just now to the principal, and I think the principal and his elders should also be very interested in this proposal."

"That... teacher."

Before leaving, Airl rubbed his hands against each other repeatedly, and after hesitating for a while, he said with some awkwardness——

"During this time in Hanhai City... can I still come to chat with you?"

Connor was slightly taken aback, but then, a happy smile appeared on his face again: "Anytime. My lovely students are always welcome here."

At that moment, Coco saw the twinkling stars in the eyes of her president.

This kind of performance made Coco seem a little puzzled, she frowned, and watched President Arrow salute Connor in a very respectful gesture.After that, he took him out of the library.

"Ah~~~~!"

Walking out of the old Tengshu's school gate, the sky in October has begun to dim, and the pedestrians on the road have gradually become less and less, and the oil lamps on both sides have been lit again.

Airl stretched her waist, with a happy smile on her face.He rubbed his shoulders slightly and shook his arms.

Ke Ke on the side stared intently at her elder brother, the president. After hesitating for a long time, she asked, "Brother president, you look... different from usual today."

In an instant, the president of Song of the Mermaid froze as if twitching.After a while, he turned his head quickly and said with a commercial smile on his face: "Is there... Is there? Ah, probably because I haven't come back to see that old man for a long time, so I'm a little excited. Tell you, that old man When the guy is in class, he is often eccentric, and he also likes to give us a lot of professional and difficult homework, so many of our students hate him."

Turning his head, Ai Luo stretched his waist again: "However, since he is indeed very proficient in academics and can more or less speak in front of the principal, I am so polite to him. Otherwise... hmph Humph!"

As he spoke, Airl raised his foot and kicked a stone flying in the road.

Ke Ke tilted her head, and continued to look at her "completely abnormal" president.But after thinking about it, she let out a breath and stopped thinking about it.

"Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? Please."

After leaving the aristocratic area in the south and returning to the civilian area in the north, Airl smiled and took Coco to a hot dog stand.

Ke Ke stood on her tiptoes and looked at the hot and fragrant sausages on the hot dog stand, and swallowed involuntarily.In the process of choosing food, she had already thrown away the doubts just now, and after finally ordering a sausage, she immediately ate it with relish.

After finishing the little girl, Ai Luo and Ke Ke ate while walking, and it didn't take long before they came to the tavern where the "National Battle Cards" competition was rumored to be held.From far away, the cheers from inside could be heard.

"Is it right here?"

Arrow bit the sausage and glanced at the poster on the door of the tavern.Then he opened the door and walked in.

Here, it is completely incomparable with the Unicorn Tavern in Pelican Town, where there are hardly many people!

It's just that they just stepped here, and the lively atmosphere emanating from the whole tavern frightened Airl and Coco for a moment, and they didn't dare to step inside again.

This unicorn-like bar is packed with all kinds of people!

There are humans who are eating seriously over there, and there are dwarves who are drinking and chatting next to them.On the other side, several elves seemed to be fighting and dancing there because of alcohol. Turning their heads to look at the other side, some beast-shaped people seemed to start fighting because of a disagreement.

The entire tavern was bustling with activity, and there was no time to even walk inside.This really made Airl marvel at how the waitresses carrying wine glasses were able to shuttle back and forth freely in the crowd of so many people.

"Let's...be careful."

Airl clutched the hat on his head, and continued to hold Coco's hand, and the two of them carefully pressed against the corner of the wall, moving little by little towards the stairs on the second floor not far away.After a lot of effort, the two finally reached the stairs, and after exhaling, they quickly went upstairs.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Attack! Attack! Attack! Attack! Attack!"

On the second floor, the atmosphere here is not weaker than that on the first floor.It even added a tense atmosphere of fighting!

The second floor seems to be a large venue, surrounded by a large group of people, and the collective shouts are constantly coming from the center of the venue.The edge of the venue was also crowded with all kinds of nervous observers.On the other side of the wall, there are various odds tables posted, indicating that this is not only a game, but also a good handicap.

"Attack! Attack! Attack! Attack! Attack!"

Boom!Boom!Boom!Boom!Boom!

With every shout, there will be a sound of fists hitting the table from the surrounding circle of the crowd.

Airl and Coco came to the outside of the encirclement, but there were a lot of people in front of them, and they couldn't see the specific situation inside.

After searching for a while, Ke Ke at the side said, "Brother President, I don't seem to have seen the assassin. He should be inside, right?"

Ai Luo also nodded, and said: "This guy must have lost a long time ago, and I don't know whether he is here to watch the fun or has already gone back... Sigh, let's wait for a while." "Attack! Attack! Attack!" The voice sounded, and Ai Luo could fully understand that the most exciting national battle card duel should be going on in the middle of the encirclement of this group of people.

But this has nothing to do with him. When he was idle and bored, he turned his head and glanced at the odds table hanging on the wall over there.

"...?!"

After seeing it for the first time, Airl suddenly realized that he seemed to be dazzled? !This kind of fear made him rush over again and look at the odds table carefully!

"Cream... this guy... is actually playing a game?!"

That's right, on the odds table on the wall, it shows that there are two sides in the game, and one of them is Cream's name!Unless it's the same name and surname, otherwise, this guy didn't run away!

"It's the last one, it's the last one! It's out!... Soldier Card Leader! It's the leader! It's done! It's a success!"

In an instant, cheers like a riot erupted from the crowd!The crowd that had just piled up began to surge, some of them raised their hands and celebrated loudly, some were cursing and swearing, but some of them immediately rushed to the handicap on Ai Luo's side and started to go crazy He yelled at the salesperson for the bill in his hand and exchanged it for bonuses.

And when the crowd finally dispersed, Arrow finally caught sight of the man at the center of the battle.

At this time, the assassin stood up excitedly, saluted slowly to his opponent, and then raised his hands again, showing his demeanor as a winner!

"Cream! Didn't expect you to win?"
